Bug #420
closedSuricata failed to start
Description
Hi,
My Suricata has been running for months without issues. However, today when I attempt to start it, I get "File size limit exceeded" at the end of the initialization output as follows:

Please can someone be kind to tell me what might be wrong?
My suricata version is : Suricata 1.2rc1
Thanks
